Editorial Review:

Description:
Directed by Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator), ROBOT JOX reveals a world where nations settle their territorial disputes by a single combat between two giant machines. Piloted by national heroes Achilles (Gary Graham, TV's Alien Nation) and Alexander (Paul Koslo, Shadowchaser), the robots meet in Death Valley to fight for the greatest prize of all: Alaska. But when Achilles' machine crushes 300 spectators, the match ends in a draw. Refusing to face Alexander in a rematch, Achilles is replaced by Athena (Anne-Marie Johnson, TV's Melrose Place), a genetically-engineered combat fighter. So when the GenJox is nearly killed and the game is forfeited, Achilles avenges their honor by challenging Alexander to a winner-take-all death match, in this heavy-metal, sci-fi adventure.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not So Bad
I remember watching this movie back in the early 90s. It was one of my favorites. I bought the movie on DVD about a year ago and watched it again for the first time in years. First thing you notice is the cheesy sets. Oddly enough I still enjoyed watching the show. The fights with the mechs are great to watch for an old school sci-fi fan. This was before CGI was popular, so it leaves a lot to the imagination. I liked the story, the acting wasn't bad at all. Its definitely a classic in my ... Read More

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - childhood Favorite
I remember renting this on VHS as a kid with my brother. It was awesome back then and is almost equally awesome now. Except this time it funnier than it used to be.

although, it's not supposed to be funny... oh well, I like corny or just plain bad movies anyway. Most people may not like it but It's still on of my favs to watch when nothing else is on t.v.

**this may be a spoiler. it doesn't give away the plot or ending but it does get you paying attention to the actors ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Professional Wrestling with Giant Robots
That's what this film is. Very much something along the lines of modern professional wrestling, complete with the "behind the scenes" conflicts and romances, the gym/training sequences, and the interviews, trash-talking, and the "sports commentary" that goes along with it, as well as the relatively ineffectual referees.

This is the mindset, and for the story (which isn't supposed to be taken seriously), it actually works. But because they use Giant Robots, there are matters of technological ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - So campy, its fun to watch
I remember seeing this at a video rental store, and remembering it being advertised on television and in different magazines. From the box art (different from the box art shown here in Amazon - there were two robots facing off), I just had that feeling that it was going to be good.

Was I ever wrong!

This film is so campy, so over the top, it reminds me of other movies in the same vein (Wing Commander for instance). These are great to watch just for the sheer cheap entertainment value, ... Read More
